International Journal Of Scientific Research. 2023 Dec; 12(12): 9-112277-8179https://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/234933Background: Atherosclerotic disease is the most common cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in general population. Spontaneous coronary artery dissection is the most common cause of coronary artery disease (CAD) in pregnancy. Arterial thrombosis is rare in pregnancy. Hypercoagulable state in pregnancy leads to thrombosis in predisposed individuals. Various other risk factors include dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, high maternal age, hormone therapy. Being a case report the study was conducted at SDM Medical College, Dharwad,Methods: Karnataka, India, based on a patient came to Emergency Room (ER) in August 2021. We analysed the case to ?nd out the signi?cance of emergency medical management of ACS in pregnancy. A woman of term pregnancy came to ER with chest pain was evaluated with electrocardiogram (ECG) and shortness of breath pro?le (SOB). ECG and SOB was suggestive of Non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The patient was evaluated with echocardiography and angiography. Angiography showed distal left anterior descending artery (LAD) thrombosis. Patient was treated with antiplatelets and anticoagulants without the need of thrombolysis or angioplasty. Lower segment caesarean section (LSCS) was the mode of delivery. Conclusion: Maternal and fetal wellbeing was assured through prompt diagnosis and management in ER.Acute coronary syndromeCoronary artery diseaseNon ST segment elevation myocardial infarctionLower segment caesarean sectionJournal ArticleIndiaJunior Resident, Department of Emergency Medicine, SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital, Dharwad, Karnataka, India- 580009Professor, Department of Emergency Medicine, SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital, Dharwad, Karnataka, India- 580009Professor and Head, Department of Emergency Medicine, SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital, Dharwad, Karnataka, India- 580009
